Sunday was dry, mostly cloudy, and warm with a temperature around 30 degrees.

Now on Monday morning, we are seeing light snow and fog across the mountain.

From Monday into Monday night, we could see some snow, though I think the most intense snow will stay just to the north of the mountain as a cold front stalls over far northern Colorado.

Then from late Monday night through Tuesday evening, a narrow band of intense snow could form thanks to the combination of abundant moisture and the jet stream overhead. If this comes together just right, Tuesday should present powder that gets deeper through the day with the potential for 5-10 inches of accumulation from late Monday night through Tuesday evening.

From later Tuesday through Wednesday, we could see light snow or a break in the snow altogether as the brunt of the storm moves into southern Colorado. There could still be leftover powder or at least soft conditions on Wednesday morning.

For the final part of the storm from Wednesday night into early Thursday, we should see another 2-4+ inches of snow as additional storm energy moves across Colorado. The timing of this snow should create soft/powder conditions on Thursday morning.

After all of this storminess, we should see dry weather on Friday, there could be light snow during the weekend of December 10-11, and then there will be a higher chance for more significant snow totals early the following week between around December 11-13.
